The Slow and Deliberative Jap.

The Jap is very slow and deliberate,
and everything is done On a small scale.
The houses are diu1nutive and the rooms
like closets. Because Of my desire to
teach the true religion to them have en-
deavered to win their confidence and to
do this have always acted as though were
one of them. On reaching the house OF the
lady on whom 1 wish to call l leave my
shoes at the door and enter the room. The
floor is covered with mats three feet long
by two and half wide, lying close to-
gether, making a carpet; on this kneel
opposite the lady, who is also kneeline,
and we commence bowling and repeating
meaningless phrases. Three bows are
made. the head touching the floor between
the hands, which are placed directly in
front, each bow made slowly, the head
being held On the floor about the space OF
time required to count ten.
After the salutation tea is brought and
placed in front of me on little table
about a foot high, and each one in the
room is served in the same manner.
There is no furniture in the room, no de-
corations on the walls save in some houses
one or two scrolls. Many of the pieces OF
brio a -brac received from that country are
made especially for the export trade. Fol
instance, these minute fans which you
have used SO extensively in decorations
were unknown to me in Japan, and the
little cups and saucerS, so artlStlcally anC
tastefully coiored and SO priced by you
Americans, were made expressly for you
for the Jap never drinks his tea from 8
cup with a handle. Enquirer

Struck Out for Herself.

People are asking, "Who is Mrs. Fanny
Chambers Gooch!' She is q new departure
among literary women. Instead of compel
ing with men for precarious living as .
newspaper or magazine writer, she has en-
tered field almost unexplored by the gentler
sex, and appears as a traveller and historian.
She is now in New York attending to tho
publication OF her new book on Mexico,
which will be out this spring, and promises q
rare treat She has spent six years in Mexico
familiarizing herself with the history, tradi-
tions and customs Of the people. Through
the influence Of President Diaz and his wife
she gained access to the archives Of state and
the old libraries. and doubtless has learned q
great deal that other writers never heard OF
President Diaz considers her history so au'
thentic that he viii have it translated into
Spanish for the benefit Of his countrymen--

The Other Side of the Single.

Kate Sanborn, writing in The Boston
Beacon of Gladstones optimistic COM
ments on Tennyson's gloomy effort, says:
sit makes me think of country prayer
meeting, where a melancholy young con-
vert rose and enumerated various reasons
for Encouragement in the decline Of this
and that good thing. An old deacon rose,
as the respondent saint seated himself,
and said: I've been considerably inter-
ested in Brother B. g remarks, but l tell
you it makes sight of difference which
side of the shingle you look at That
was all, but it was powerful antidote to
the younger speakers point of view. The
grand old worker, striving TO help his
fellow men, and the grand old hermit
poet, with his morbid nature, look on the
same picture with different eyes. "-Ex.

Ouixotic Youngsters.

Every time circus or wild west show
comes here with Indians, cowboys, etc,
we arc sure to have arrests Of youngsters
who want TO get off TO the prairies. They
first catch the fever from reading cheap
and thrilling romances which are sup
posed to give pictures of western life, and
the sight of real live Indians and cowboys
fires their imagination to such pitch that
they will let nothing stand in the way Of
accomplishing their Quixotic enterprises.
The first act is usually to steal from their
parents, as money is the first necessity.
Then they provide themselves with rifles,
revolvers and knives.-Police Sergeant in

GOODS STOLEN FROM A FREIGHT TRAIN ON
THE READING ROAD.

Between 2 o'clock and daylight last
Saturday morning about 81, 200 worth
of goods were stolen from a PEPPER
line car Of the Philadelphia and Read.
ing Railroads fast freight. The rob-
berry was accomplished while the train
was running between Pottstown and
Reading at the rate of twenty-five
miles an hour. Five men who had
boarded the cars below Phenixville
are suspected.
BY means of rope fastened to the
footboard they are supposed to have
lowered one of their number to break
the lock at the side of the car. Then
one of the thieves stood guard on the
roof, while the other four broke open
seventeen cases of goods consigned by
Philadelphia houses to Harrisburg
merchants. Hats, clothing, jewelry
and hosiery in large quantities were
taken.
The goods we're, it is thought,
thrown out and gathered up afterward
by the thieves. No arrests have been
made. During the economy scare last
Winter the railroad company cut
down its police service, aud ever since
then the trains have swarmed with
trsmps, and recently numerous petty
cases of Car robbery have come to
light.

Prisoners Escape.

The Jail at Honesdale, Wayne county,
this State,is certainly not secure. Read
ers will remember that murderer Nc
Cabe, who was under sentence of death
escaped from it some time ago. Now
comes the news that james Stanley,
Charles Butts and Henry Wanan, who
were awaiting trial for larcency,
escaped from that institution and no
trace of them has yet been discovered.
They filed the iron links in two that
held their cell doors, and reached the
corridor. They then entered an un-
used cell, from which prisoner at
tempted to escape some years ago, and
dug hole through the ceiling. They
then crawled into the garret, cut hole
in the cupola, made rope of the bed
clothes, and fastened it to the cupola.
They next slipped from the roof ty
means Of the rope, and made off.

Enforcement of Two Weeks Pay Bill.

A large mass meeting was held on
the river Common, at Northampton
street, Wilkes-Barre, on Monday even
ing to consider the enforcement of the
new law known as the Two-weeks
Pay bill. The meeting was attended
by about 1000 including laborers,
capitalists and prominent people. The
following resolutions were adopted by
unanimous vote:
WHEREAS, We hold these facts to
be indisputable: That labor produces
all wealth that the men who toll,
clothe, shelter and warm all others,
and that wages are not drawn from
capital, but are only part of the
wealth that is produced (day by day.
by the working masses and
WHEREAS, The system of payment
that now prevails in violation of law
almost universally throughout our
State, robs the working masses, makes
them more dependent, and is injurious
to the best interests of the entire Com
mon wealth, therefore be it
Resoloed, That while we consider
the Semi-Monthly Pay bill as only a
partial recognition of the laws of natural
justice and the rights of labor, we de-
mand its enforcement as the recognized
law of the State, and
Resolved, That corporations which
are themselves only the creatures Of the
law, and who owe their very existence
to its federation, should be foremost in
obedience to that which creates them
and brings them into being.
Resoloed, That we demand of the
employing classes strict observance of
the spirit and letter of the bill which
has just become one of the laws of our
State. And be it further
ReSOloed, That we her eby request
all law-abiding citizens to cooperate
with us in demanding the observance
and enforcement Of the Semi-Monthly
Pay Law.

The Chatsworth disaster, now that

The Chatsworth disaster, now that
the dead is reduced below eighty, stands
second in the list of American railroad
accidents--Ashtabula, when l0l we're
killed eleven years ago on the Lake
Shore, being the most fatal on the list.
In that case q long and high bridge
collapsed, and fire was the chief cause
OF the frightful fatality in the pesent
instance the small size of the culvert
piled up the death-roll. If IL had been
larger, wider and deeper, the cars
would have piled on each other, but as
the space was narrow, car after car was
neatly stripped off its truck and the
upper framework smashed and tele-
scoped. The Boston and Providence
Railroad has settled claims reaching
S430,000 on the Bussey Bridge dis
aster, where the killed were not
fourth of those at Chatsworth, and the
total cost of that one weak bridge will
be over $4,000. On anything like
the same basis the Chatsworth culvert
will bankrupt the poverty-stricken
Toledo, Peoria and Western, whose
gross earnings this year to July 81
were but $497,0O0. The Boston and
Providence, by way of locking the
door when the damages are out, has
put $4,000 into the new Bussey
Bridge-an absurdly large sum-

keeping, or if such injured party shall
not accept the satisfaction which may
be offered it shall be the duty of such
injured party to make immediate ap-
plication in the manner directed by the
Act. In case the owner shall not
claim his property within ten days
after the stray is taken up, it shall be
the duty of the person taking up such
stray to cause the same to be advertis.

within sixty days after such advertise
ment, the person taking the stray shall
make the application TO a Justice of
the Peace, who shall issue a warrant
to constable to make public sale of
the stray, and from the proceeds pay
all reasonable charges and damages
and cost of keeping, and the surplus to
be given to the county treasurer. If
the owner shall appear within one year
and prove his property the surplus
shall be paid to him, otherwise it goes
into the county funds.
